I did the FitKit at a local shop last spring before I got into racing and had a tune up from a coach this past spring. Only thing he changed was flipping the stem to drop the bars a little for a more agressive position. Fortunately, everything else was done "right" (or at least the same as the coach would have done it). And it bears out - I can ride pretty long distances in comfort despite the bike having "race" geometry. Any pain comes more from me being out of shape (lower back, shoulders, hips) rather than the fit. Once I ride more, there's no pain.<BR/><BR/>Another great post - actually, this is more like a full-length magazine article that should be published!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
